Welcome back! On today's episode, Noah's brothers (who are internet bangouts) update his terminology book. There are many new terms and phrases which our generation utilise in explaining new shifts in culture, and today we decided to focus on terms used in Gender, Sexuality and a few others you might find interesting.

Bollo Speaks is a collaboration between the Widening Participation department and community partner Bollo Brook Youth Centre. Each episode is created entirely by the young people, with conversations around Identity, perception and more, soundtracked by their own music, recorded at Bollo Brook's in-house studio. In episode 2, the young people discuss inequality and mental wellbeing.

The borders between genres such as ambient, drone, musique concrète, electro-acoustic and experimental music are blurry. Compositions sonically weave together soundscapes from natural and urban environments, recordings of instruments, voice, with synthesizers and electronics, creating immersive listening experiences which transcend linear narratives and instead invite us to discover novel notions of space and time.

Join the usual sonic culprits Emily Sarsam, Yamen Makdad and Christina Hazboun in their aural exploration.
